Erica's not-so-impressive-nor-comprehensive Bollywood playlist

I was going to wait and buy some of my favorite Bollywood songs off of iTunes when I got back to the US, but then I realized that I wanted to show my family what I've been listening to so I started buying some music over here. Here's a list of what I bought so far, what I might buy later, and some of the songs I've been hearing lately:

FYI, pretty much all the songs I bought are mellow, ballads-y songs:

Tum Se Hi from the film, 'Jab We Met', which I saw a while ago back in the US

Tu Bole Main Boloon, which was played a lot in the 'Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na' trailers

'Pyaar Ke Liye' which is the only song that interested me when I saw 'Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic'

'Kal Ho Naa Ho' from the film of the same name, which I haven't seen yet, but I want to.

I also bought 'Kabhi Kabhi Aditi Zindagi', Nazrein Milaana', and 'Kahin To Hogi Ho', all also from 'Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na'.

Don't ask me what the song titles mean; I know only several words in Hindi and that's about it!

I'm also thinking of buying a couple songs from the films, 'Haal-e-dil', 'Om Shanti Om', 'Kismat Konnection, and a couple by Swathi's all-time favorite singer, Atif Aslam.

Songs that I don't plan on buying but do find infectious and therefore may eventually buy one or two for the memories anyway are:

'Bachna Ae Haseeno'

'Paapu Can't Dance'

'Bas Ek King'

I feel too rushed to bother finding their respective videos on youtube to link- I gotta start packing all my stuff!
